1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL(Scroll down for pictures after description)This beautiful 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is extremely clean inside and out. nbsp;and is ready to compete at car shows. or used as an excellent driver. The paint is Arctic White (147) over medium red/burgundy leather (277) with a black soft top. and a matching Arctic White hard top. (Most arctic white cars you see for sale have light gray or tan leather) This 560SL was originally sold on April 5. 1988 at RBM of Atlanta. INC. and then found its way to Kentucky in March of 1990 having 19. 09 miles at the time. It remained in Kentucky for 13 years until March of 2003. when it was sold to a couple in Ohio then having 40. 37 miles. It now only has 46. 50 original miles on it. and has only been driven as a summer cruiser averaging less than 600 miles/ year over the last 12 years. It appears to have always been garage kept. and only driven in nice weather as the body is rust free and still has a high gloss original finish. This 560SL has been recently sorted. and a lot of work has been done to it to take it to the next level. A brand new German canvas soft top was fitted to the vehicle. 4 brand new Pirelli tires were mounted on the factory aluminum wheels which have been polished out (not chromed) and the engine air housing was done as well to match. both were done by the previous owner. Both hood insulations pads (yes there are 2) were just replaced with genuine Mercedes parts. These are known for deteriorating and falling apart onto the engine. The vehicle is equipped with the proper wiper blades to match the wiper arms. not black plastic like you see on a lot of SL’s. It also has the original Becker radio. This SL is mechanically sound. and is dry underneath not having any leaks. A transmission service was just performed including transmission fluid. filter. and pan gasket. Both valve cover gaskets were replaced. new fuel filter. and the oil and filter were also changed at this time. All of the component belts on the front of the engine are new. The A/C system has been checked for leaks and works great blowing ice cold! Included with the sale is a copy of the clean Carfax report. books. first aid kit. the original spare which appears to be unused. and roadside tools. **This is a dealer transaction. and we are required to collect sales tax for some states.
